Joe O'Toole (Independent)

I say to the Leader there is a range of subjects we might discuss during this proposed period of adjournment. They include child abuse, cuts in health and education, difficulties in accident and emergency departments, the need for public sector reform and the need for the Government to raise funds internationally. I set aside the issues we are to discuss later on tonight. We should take this opportunity to articulate what people are saying to us, put it on the record, show we are listening and put forward proposals for problem solving. In that way we will show the people outside that we have some energy.
